[quote=Anonymous]I have been with a family for the past 4 years. We are about to part ways soon, and so, I am looking for a new job.  Is it just me (have I not had to interview for a while), or are many of the people hiring right now completely clueless, to the point where it is bordering on rude? I guess I think that if you are going to put the work into employing someone in your household, and reasonably expect that they will be professional and experienced, shouldn't you at least do some basic research into how things "work"? 
My most recent experience, to clarify: potential MB and I have message 4 times, each time she obviously sends me a mass message, and each time I respond with something genuine and thoughtful.  The most recent message was to set up an interview, but asked me ALL of the questions that she has asked in our previous correspondences (my education, experience, their needs, etc...).  At this point, I feel almost insulted that she can't be bothered to remember who she is messaging with, and am considering not taking things further. Am I totally out of line/overreacting here, or would you take this as a sign of other problems to come?  And why does it seem like this is becoming the norm more and more often?[/quote]
